Beckham to move to LA

I pretty sure he gives quite a bit of his money to different things including several football acadamies, which get a lot of kids off the street and potentially into a better life too. Obviously though, the lot of you saying he should give it away would do much better in his situation

Yes i disagree with the high wages sports players get. And i mean all sport. But then again, would it be as good if it wasn;t the case. Maybe so in football, because wages are Exceedingly high. But there you go.

They are paying lots of money to him in the hope that he'll bring lots of revenue back into the the club - it's not rocket science!

It's very unfair for the other players though - I bet none of them are getting anywhere near as much as he is.

And how many 'world cup' players are there playing in America at the moment or do they just go there when their careers are all but over?

It's all about the money, no matter how much they give to charity, Victoria will hardly be able to contain herself on telling people how much 'brand Beckham' is worth - besides, I'd read that she'd given him an ultimatum - move to LA or they split! Also, she needs to be where someone can keep her alleged implants in perfect condition

Okay... I can understand why some of you guys are being irate... And I'm not really a Beckham fan either... And NO TOMMY WE DID NOT LOSE HORRIBLY IN THE WORLD CUP!!! Nearly took down Italy with a 9 man squad... But that's not the point. The point is that yes, most of our players are awful, and the good guys are playing international football, but ultimately, LA Galaxy siging Becks will probably good for American Football. (yea I said it and he didn't )

Oh yea. Of course it's only a commercial thing. But the national association (I don't know what it's called here) probably doesn't realize, that just the name and his looks alone (I know quite a few girls who fancy him) will draw so many more viewers. MLS has struggled a bit since it's inception, though certainly it's doing better than they ever expected. If a big name like that can bring any extra fans/inspired children, we'll be pretty well off in 15 years time...
